Thanks to the 'Foo Fighters,' I just have to say that your music really moves me... especially the acoustic versions. Soulful... really... Beautiful. And then, I just wanted to say that I like the idea of booking bands by raising your own money, as I've been hearing that 'fans' of Foo Fighters have done recently. What do we want? When do we want it? Lol... Can I possibly interest you in 'three bags full?' No, really... You see, the truth is that when you 'make things happen,' like concerts... and whatever else you had in mind, really... that is 'magick,'- and we can all do it. You see...? 'Gee, I'd like to see the Foo Fighters appear...' 'Me, too... let's do it.' Abracadabra... more or less. But, following the entirely 'scientific' principles of payment for hire, albeit by a new and unique 'channel,' we might 'produce' an 'act' most 'magical'... Where two or more are gathered... you know... It's really not that big a leap. And then, you expand on these 'new' 'channels'...

Now, before I do anything else, and/or forget to mention this incident in the process of 'building the bigger picture,' I want to tell you something; I only mention it, because... it was a moment of 'joy,' and I want you to find your own little moments of 'joyful recognition' in your own lives. It's what makes being alive so... enjoyable...
At any rate, the local station that I like to listen to (because it comes in here in Florence, mostly... lol... just kidding, Carl... you know I love you, baby) very thoughtfully played (on the Nikki Sixx/Jen show, come to think of it) the studio version of Everlong by 'Foo Fighters,' I really love that song. And, just for 'practice,' say, and mostly for my own amusement (let's face it), I always try to lean my ear really close to the speaker when the part with the 'radio frequencies/voices' comes in; you know, I could never quite 'pick it apart,' until this time... and a single word came through...
You know what it was?
Magic...
It's there, isn't it...? It is...
On track 11...
Isn't life... wonderful? Sometimes?
It really is.

Good morning... You know, I almost always turn on the radio when I wake up in the morning, and this morning, the most charming host(ess) made a couple of remarks that I couldn't help addressing... to begin with... Your daughter is 13, and you wonder if she is too old to go trick-or-treating... and you asked for opinions... so... I'm going to tell you a story... true, even... lol... The most memorable 'Halloween' that I ever had (ever) was the year that I was 13; I spent it on Kauai, with my best/only friend, whose last name was... Dokter. Ironic, don't you think? Lolol... We took a skateboard, and built a spaceship over it, with tinfoil (wouldn't you just know it?), and it was hollow, to put our candy in; we dressed ourselves up as 'aliens'... green make-up and everything... and we 'rewarded ourselves' for this most clever work with the 'booty.' My mom even threw a Halloween party in the garage, in the hope that we could make a few more friends there, but... well... I had one... One good one... And it made everything okay. I still think about her, very fondly, and our floats over the stock ponds in a homemade raft, writing in Elfen runes to each other, and... trick-or-treating. Wherever you are today, my friend, I wish you so very Well... remember me, won't you? I do... And, your daughter... let her make her own memories, and her own fun, in whatever way this world will allow, for as long as she can... We're not in a great big hurry to grow up... are we? And secondly... it IS a beautiful day in Florence... on the Siuslaw River... on the Great Ocean, looking West... And 'good luck' trying to find a place to pull over on the river... But, hay... come on down... take a chance...

Now, before I begin my posting 'in earnest,' I'd like to submit this piece, just for 'fun,'- you know, I try to take my happiness here where I can get it, and I just want to say 'thank you' again to everybody that plays their part in the magick-al 'Song of Life'... You already know that I love this tune... now, look at his jersey... I never really paid attention before... It's black, of course... with a big gold '22' on it... Well, I'll be darned... And those sneakers... oh, Brother... Do be Well... Back in black... and Direct Current...

Oh, goodness... I thought I'd try to get this posted before my favorite 'morning show' is over... I'll probably just miss it... like the last few concerts I wanted to be at... eh, Carl? I just wanted to say two things, really... first, I hummed along as I could... some good stuff, there... And then, secondly... whatever it is that any of you really think of me, I have to tell you that I couldn't be more sincere in the things that I say... you know... If I'm lyin' I'm dyin'...For realz... But, you should also know that my little 'tokens' are real, too... and last night... on my last break at about 4am (maybe someone else saw it, too, or maybe it was just one of those 'tricks' of the atmosphere, but if so... it was a GOOD 'trick'...lol...), I got another little 'love note,' if you Will. And what do you think it was? A rainbow in the dark. No kidding. The moon was encircled by clouds, and they were 'lit up,' in the colors of the rainbow, with purple/red outside, orange, yellow, green, and then blue, in a doughnut-shape around an empty 'hole,' where the Moon rested... and it was sooooo bright... It was beautiful. And if that wasn't 'Magic,' Carl, I don't know what is... It's all I'm really looking for here... And what do you know...? I found it. Big Magic. I really do wish you all a 'magical' day of your own... ask for it... look for it... Bring it. I'll be around somewhere, humming 'It's a Wonderful Life.' See you 'round...

Ooops... double post... double 'stuff'... Oh, goodness... Now, I showed you my 'mark' on a really good cookie... I know I mentioned it, but they make new peanut butter and 'Golden' varities now, too... I was thrilled... No, really... I'm taking some of both in my lunch bag... Now, let me show you something else... These are old... and not cookies... But they look kind of familiar, don't they? Looks 'golden' to me... lol... Because man shouldn't live by 'bread' alone... I say have some cake... or cookies...

And speaking of 'Back in Black,' and Zerubabbel... It's " Rock or Bust"... lol... Who art thou, O great mountain? Before Zerubabbel thou shalt become a plain, and he shall bring forth the head-stone thereof with shouting, crying, Grace, grace unto it.Just serendipity, I'm sure... and just released... And probably just in time...

Well, here I am, in the middle of my one big 'day off' for the week... and I was just listening to the afternoon radio show, which featured a 'review' of a 'video' regarding what was, evidently, an 'over-zealous' animal rights activist... and the 'display' that she put on in a restaurant, with a live chicken, to boot... A real sideshow... You know, I couldn't help responding to this one; it's one of the reasons that I'm here, talking to myself. How can you make 'God' look 'good' by being a ludicrous 'reflection' of that which 'animates' us? You give 'Him' no glory... and you have caused not one person (I can almost guarantee those numbers) to wish to 'know' 'Him' as a 'lover of happy creatures' by having represented 'Him' so poorly... not to mention the fact that you obviously misunderstand 'nature' as it is. Certain creatures, in this world as it is, are part of that 'chain' which provides sustenance for certain other creatures... we don't necessarily need to be one of them, it is true, but... it is a poor way to make that statement. Speaking of "devil's advocates"... do you see how that works? Who's representing who here...? It really makes you Wonder... You see, you can choose to be here... or not. And, even so, I try to be a good host,- some entertainment, with any luck, and a little bit of something you didn't know... Maybe something you'd like to know better... And, by the way, there are plenty of sheep... there's a definite reason that they don't sell 'lamb-burgers'... Ewwwww... Lolol...

And speaking of 'Ewwww'... Guess Who's Coming to my Youtube 'Suggestions'...?Baaaahahahaha... You two look like a 'Black Hole Sun' video gone bad... Dear, deer... I tell you what, though... you 'saved yourself' with this one... I can't tell you how much fun I've had with it. True-ly... I just wanted to share... I hope you don't mind... In other words, don't sue me, bro... Jimmy Fallon... ummmm... 'the Great' Jimmy Fallon, I'm sure... With all due respect, of course... Oh, I just wanted to edit this post, at this time, to yell... "Seven, come eleven..." "Whose House...? Runs House... Whose House...? Runs House..." Yay... yayah...

Why, thank you... yes... in spite of other 'things,' not quite so 'propitious,' say, I do consider myself to be rather lucky, all in all... After all, I got to do the 'Holy Diver' bit, too... as luck would have it... and that was beautiful, too... and 'lucky' to come back up... I would have to say, in retrospect. The 'odds' were probably against it... Iron Man... perfect. But, here's one more for brother Ronnie James... And his 'gift' of 'self-interpretation'... do you see how that 'connects' with our discussion regarding the Hebrew language, and missing letters? What does it mean to you? It all means the 'World' to me... As do you... my own Pook-ie... how lucky can you get?

I just wanted to take the opportunity to say that, 'yes'... this Is a 'great week' for Rock, if not a 'Great Year,' so to speak... No, really... right here, where I am, we've seen the 'return' of some of the all-time great Rock bands and rock shows... lol... the most awesome Def Leppard (Rock of Ages) was here, and Rob Zombie (Living Dead Girl, More Human than Human), and Social Distortion (Ring of Fire)(well...), the Moody Blues, you know what I mean... and the names of the new bands and material are most coincidental, to say the least, I must say... provocative, even... And the bands themselves are making a 'return,' or at least, some of the great names that were associated with them, and I find this to be... most Wonderful. You see, we all expected things... listen to the music... and always we believe that they are 'right around the corner,' and really, they are... but it wasn't quite time to party like it's 1999... Here comes AC/DC, and Def Leppard, and Pink Floyd, and Robert Plant, Weezer (you know you had me at Hash Pipe...lol), and Foo Fighters, and oh, yes, Nikki Sixx and his 'Modern Vintage' (whom I see has a 'hidden camera' video posted... I'm sorry, dude...) they're all here to 'bring it'... at this time... a really 'happy return' to memories of better times. I find it all to be perfectly wonderful... it's so good to be here, don't you think? The 'good news'... Am I happy to be here...? You bet I am... I can show you the 'ring' now, I think... the Signet... the 'Ring of Zerubabbel,' for real, and from the Beginning... and so it is written: I am the Alpha, and the Omega... And maybe, the Delta Dawn... lol... we'll skip that one... In the Beginning
When the King conceived ordaining He engraved engravings in the luster on high. A blinding spark flashed within the Concealed of the Concealed from the mystery of the Infinite, a cluster of vapor in formlessness, set in a ring, not white, not black, not red, not green, no color at all. When a band spanned, it yielded radiant colors. Deep within the spark gushed a flow imbuing colors below, concealed within the concealed of the mystery of the Infinite. The flow broke through and did not break through its aura. It was not known at all until, under the impact of breaking through, one high and hidden point shone. Beyond that point, nothing is known. So it is called Beginning, the first command of all.
"The enlightened will shine like the zohar of the sky, and those who make the masses righteous will shine like the stars forever and ever" [Daniel 12:3]
Zohar, Concealed of the Concealed, struck its aura. The aura touched and did not touch this point. Then this Beginning emanated and made itself a palace for its glory and its praise. There it sowed the seed of holiness to give birth for the benefit of the universe. The secret is: "Her stock is a holy seed" [Isaiah 6:13]
Zohar, sowing a seed for its glory like the seed of fine purple silk. The silkworm wraps itself within and makes itself a palace. This palace is its praise and a benefit to all.
With the Beginning the Concealed One who is not known created the palace. This palace is called Elohim. The secret is: "With Beginning, created Elohim" [Genesis 1:1]
From the Zohar... Did anybody else see that 'worm' slip in there? Oh, brother... 'In Living Color'... In Living Truth...

Well, I have just a little bit of time today, which I should be taking advantage of, and to begin with, I just wanted to say... "Go Ducks... you son of a bitch." Lolol... Shabbat Shalom; it is a beautiful day here in 'Cascadia,' isn't it? It is good just to be here... alive... and dancing... I have so much to say... there is the ark, and 'pearl necklaces,' and books... books. Remember our triptych? And our "Book of Hours?" And there is another book, called "The Tanya," to which I will give you a link, which oh, so serendipitously brings us back to that Delta Dawn video that I posted, against my better 'judgment,' since it was Tanya Tucker's version... well... www.chabad.org/library/tanya/default.htmBut... you see how all things seem to work together? Again, I find it all to be quite wonderful... and that brings me to another subject that I really want to bring up, which is 'naming.' It is one of the parts that we were chosen to take in 'creation,' and it has a very Great bearing on everything that is happening, and is going to happen. It's all very Great Magick... you'll see. After all, that is one of the things left 'in contention,' so to speak... the 'Name'... And what we've done to it... And, hay... as far as 'Nickelback' goes, didn't I always say, "Give me my nickel back...?" You know I did... What's in a name, indeed...? I think we may have to go back to that one, with a renewed purpose; after all, that is important. Is...
